1950 Hudson Commodore

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1950 Hudson Commodore for purchase. Hudson's were made in Detroit until 1954, when they merged with Nash-Kelvinator to create American Motors (AMC). The Commodore was produced from 1941 to 1952 (sans war years). The Commodore was the largest and most luxurious Hudson model. The Commodore is also lauded for being a creative product of Betty Thatcher, the first female designer employed by a car manufacturer.

The Commodore is powered by its inline “Powerdome” 6 cylinder with automatic choke, paired with a manual transmission. The car spent most of its life in the western U.S. It started out in Colorado, then made its way to Washington and then to Michigan. The car has had a valve job and was given new seals at the time, comes with receipts reflecting this. The interior was redone at some point and shows very well. It just received a new 6 volt battery. The car also comes with the rear window louvers. The car rides on 15 inch steel wheels with Coker Classic wide white wall tires mounted up. Other highlights include tissue dispenser holder, electric fuel pump, dash clock, spare tire, owner's manuals. The car runs and handles as it should and remains in good condition.
